Changes in the Law
Things have changed dramatically since we were 16, and these
materials will answer your questions about: |
|
|
|
• |
Level 1, Level
2 and Level 3 licenses, and the steps new
drivers take to earn them |
|
• |
Everything you
need to take to the Secretary of State's
office with your teenager when he or she
applies for a license |
|
• |
Coaching tips
to help you through those hours you'll be
riding in the passenger seat-without a brake
at your feet or steering wheel in your hands |
|
• |
Your rights and
responsibilities as a parent under GDL |
|
• |
Setting
reasonable limits and expectations for your
new driver-your own house rules and tips to
help enforce them |
|
Graduated Driver licensing works because it gives
student drivers a minimum of 50 hours behind the wheel
with a parent, guardian or designated adult driver along
to coach them. You are the coach now, and we can help
you become a good one.
